My eyelashes are almost non-existent so I wore them for my wedding. They really do make a difference! Loved how my wedding makeup turned out as a result. I love it when makeup enhances natural beauty (or something that should be natural...haha).

They're like shaving your legs. You don't have to do it until you first try it.I wracked my brain and heart on whether to wear them for the wedding but I ultimately decided not to, because that's not what I was born with and it was important to me to get married as-is.

i'm a big proponent of fake eyelashes. i don't wear them every day (though i know someone who does - wouldn't that be SO time consuming?) but i love to wear them for special occasions and big events...or, ya know, just dinner and a movie.

I have also tried the eyelash extensions which look supernatural (gorgeous but plausible. I would only recommend them for special occasions--while they are comfortable and you wake up feeling like a goddess, they're expensive to keep up (every 2-4 weeks) and eventually diminish your natural lashes. I don't have a lot to begin with, so it's not something I can spare.

I now use RevitaLash which I LOVE! Instead of having short straight lashes, I now have long, curled lashes! I need mascara to make them stand out, but I don't even need to curl them anymore!

I wore Shu Uemura lashes for my wedding and after I saw the pictures, I wondered why I don't wear them every day! They really do add that extra something special...but I'm careful to only wear them for very special occasions.

I wear fake lashes for events that I may cry, or events that will go on for a very long time (I have an eye rubbing/ makeup smearing habit). They are great! They don't take long to apply, and I don't need to wear mascara! (Having black lashes already helps, but these add important length!)

I'm a lash addict!...although I get lash extensions. Basically the technician applies individual lashes to each lash and they last on average about 3 - 4 weeks. It's definitely a bit more of an investment...also...you have to brush out your eyelashes each day with a dry mascara wand (this was definitely new to me)...but the investment is WORTH it because it totally simplifies my make up routine. I just put on lipstain and I'm out the door in the morning. (Although I DO miss that satisfying feeling of rubbing your eyes in the morning!).

i've worn them with halloween costumes. I have long eyelashes that naturally curl, so i have to get the absurdly long ones. One set i wore did a good job for a Mad Men costume i wore. They were shorter, but made them super thick. they are really easy to wear.

I wore Twiggy lashes for Halloween when I was a little kid (I was Twiggy:)...I don't actually need them. Peeps ask me "Why are you wearing false eyelashes?" often. Um, I am not wearing any. And it's rude to ask that anyway.

I would if I thought it would help. Eyelash curler works well for most ppl.

i have when it was halloween and it made my eyes so big and beautiful! but...they are uncomfortable! and time consuming (especially with an 8 month old crawling everywhere, it's hard to spend 20 minutes on lashes!)Smoking Crayolas Blogspot

The fly legs are pretty gross, but also pretty fascinating. They definitely only work from an artistic perspective though. I don't think that they are going to start teaching the fly leg lash-extension technique in cosmetology school anytime soon, hehe.

I love the idea of a subtle pair that enhance your natural beauty, but you have to be careful! I knew a girl in college that wore these super thick ones everyday! It looked like they were weighing down her eyelids. Yikes!

I wore them for my wedding....they looked lovely, quite natural, but felt weird.....I knew they were there!Some of the new mascaras are fab...I use an AVON a mascara.....wow! I get the best lashes EVER!

I've used them when I performed a couple of years ago. It was a pain taking them off. And I wouldn't recommend them for any occasion outside the stage or shoots; you'll get too used to them and find your own too sparse only making yourself more insecure. And then next to that, it's just another thing to worry about; are my lashes still in place? When do I take them off?

False eyelashes are great! My good friend is a makeup artist and she says that you can use the individual lashes. They are much easier to apply and you get the same affect with much less work. Just adding a few to the corner of your eye makes a huge difference.

I haven't tried them yet, but am curious to try. I think they really make one look extra chic and pretty. My favourite makeup artist on youtube (and she has a website and blog) recently did this suuuper gorgeous make-up tutorial in which she used some false lashes. Her name is Lisa Eldridge, check her out, she is beautiful, has the most soothing British voice and does amazing tutorials! She even has one just on applying false lashes.

When I was dancing they were like my other half, but now I save them for when I need to look extra special. I would wear them daily but I have a fear that the glue will come off and I will have a strip of eyelash dangling around like a little bug hanging out... ew

You definitely need to try individual lashes! Ardele makes the best ones -- you can find them at most drug stores and they're only like $4. Just use tweezers, dip the end in glue, wait about 15-20 sec and just drop them in with your regular lashes (after mascara). I promise it's easy, they look so natural and you won't feel them!

I love the way that they look but I have never tried putting them on myself...I agree I think that they would be really pretty with a simple blouse or sweater and jeans. Those paper ones are completely insane! I wonder what they would look like on...if you try them PLEASE post a picture :)

I *love* false eyelashes. There are so many out there now, that you can go from natural to very dramatic depending on the occasion. I used to wear them for pageants, and now I just wear them out for special occasions.

I wore them on my wedding and LOVED having them for the pictures (they looked really natural, just more full than usual) but on our wedding night I forgot the remover stuff that they come with and was basically scrubbing them off. OUCH. Worth it though... totally worth it. :)

I wore fake eyelashes a lot when I danced competitively, but I also wore them when I got married. My eyelashes are really thin so the fakes really helped my eyes "pop" more in the photos. I would definitely recommend playing around with the individual lashes. They take longer to glue on (because you have to do them separately), but they are much more subtle!

yes i wear them for special occasions like weddings, birthday parties, etc! :) i really like wearing them! by the way i love your blog!! all your posts are so interesting :) definitely following your blog! hopefully you can check out mine too :)xoxo, Nancy

I've always loved the look of really striking eyelashes that make a statement with really simple casual clothes. But I don't think I could handle wearing false lashes everyday even though I totally agree they'd be amazing just for jeans and casual outfits.

I just used them for the first time this last weekend to my husband's Marine Corp Ball. I loved it! I had a little trouble getting them on, just because I had never done it. But once they were on, they looked fantastic. I felt like I looked wide awake, and it just gave an extra little pop of glamour. I will for sure be using them again :)

I love fake eyelashes I wear them to most special event. Once you get used to them they are really easy to put on to. I recommend getting some good quality ones like MAC and their glue too. Also I think a little individual eyelashes are a lot easier to put on and you can't feel them the way a strip can feel heavy on your eyes. You should definitely try them they are so fun.

I wore them to my best friend's wedding as a bridesmaid. We didn't put mascara on them, so they weren't too dramatic, just an extra flirty touch. However, my husband (fiance at the time) and dad both said they preferred the natural. I thought it was funny of them to even notice!

I've worn them once, for my wedding. My girlfriend did them for me (after 4 make-up trials with her, don't experiment on the day of!) and they looked wonderful.

I've got pretty long but fine and light lashes. She did 3 individuals on the outer edge of each eye and we trimmed them ever so slightly so they didn't look too unnatural. For a holiday party or every day type look, I'd just do one or two individuals on the outer edge and trim. Jane Marie from The Hairpin has a tutorial on applying false lashes.

I wore them a lot When I was a kid for ballet performances. More recently, my makeup artist did the individual ones for my wedding. They looked great! It definitely takes some practice. I recommend using a straight pin to apply the glue.

I've only ever worn them for wedding-related stuff, i.e. for my bridal portraits and on my wedding day. I think they make a big difference for those trying to achieve a more glamorous look, or for those like me who just have short eyelashes. I prefer to use really good mascara rather than fake eyelashes, but I still think they're fun!

Love love love. False lashes bring out the glam side of any girl. I'd wear them more often if I felt like going to the trouble. I usually just wear them for those nights when I need a little extra va va voom. So fantastic.

I've worn them when modeling for a photographer friend who was obsessed with false eyelashes. They feel very strange to me and sometimes take a while to apply properly, so I would only do it again for a costume or very special occasion.

I have super long lashes natural (I'm middle eastern) but I like to wear false lashes when I go out on special occasions, like a xmas or nye party. They're fun to use to dress up your look and give it a little extra something.

Oh, and one more tip. The type of fake eyelashes that aren't a thick row--the ones that have more variety to the length tends to look more natural. I also go for ones that get a bit longer in the outer edges.

yes most defiantly! just make sure if you by them and put them on yourself have good glue lol. and my friend she gets them professionally done she has them on so much i dont know what she looks like with out them they are so natural. they are fun very fun just like anything fake make sure they dont fall off lol.

Most definitely a do!!! Although I will advise be careful when you take them off, you don't want to tear off any permanent eyelashes. I always take mine off in the shower or right after, it does less damage.

Do! Do! Do! I wore them for my wedding last month, and now I'm determined to put them on more often. A lovely gal I work with wears them all the time and she looks fantastic. Sometimes it's just that extra kick to make you feel good :)

i LOVE them and would have them in a heartbeat if i could afford the semipermanent ones. I had them professionally applied for my wedding and got tons of compliments! They make such a huge difference in my appearance!

I have had mates who have got eyelash extensions - basically they glue individual lashes on to your own - takes around 2 hours but lasts for up to six weeks - you can also get refills - they recommend you get them refilled every three weeks if you want to maintain them - they look hot and you can still use mascara!

Try individuals to start rather than the stripes, they look more natural. If you like them and don't want to pay a ton for lash extensions, you can always just use a special glue that keeps them on for a month. I have to get a new bottle myself so I can always find out the name for you.

I wore fake eyelashes when I was the maid of honour for my best friends wedding. I got glue in my eye and in every picture it looked as though I had major pink eye or I had been crying for days. hahaha. I got eyelash extensions for my wedding and they lasted a month and a half. I felt fabulous everyday!!

False eyelashes can totally be the cherry on a perfectly dressed cake. Twiggy is really the ultimate poster child for false lashes. If I am correct she also drew some of the bottom lashes on with liner.

I got eyelash extensions from JJ Eyelashes in NY last year. Gorgeous, but expensive. To recreate the look, I've started wearing false lashes. For painless removal, just hold a wet wipe (regular baby wipes) over your closed eye for a few seconds. The strip will fall right off.

False lashes with the bottoms like the ones pictured remind me of A Clockwork Orange, so I would have to say no to that. But more importantly, can you imagine being on a date and forgetting that they're there, only to touch your eye, laugh, or make some inane gesture and have them fall out onto your plate or something? These are the kinds of things that keep me up at night. :)

I absolutely wear them to any party! Especially if I'll be photographed. It takes no time once you get the hang of it, and drug store brands are often 'buy one, get one' so I stock up. Lashes + lipstick= done!

I have definitely tried falsies, but only for halloween. I know people who do use them on a regular basis and love them. You need to be careful though b/c sometimes the glue stings if you don't apply it properly. ALSO there is something new - can't remember what it is called - but they are a more permanent eyelash addon. People do it for you, and they fall off naturally after awhile. They are thick and beautiful and you don't need mascara.

Yes! Go for it.. use Duo eyelash glue in gray. It last for hours and hours!!! Look on youtube for tutorials on how to apply them. That's what I did. Believe me, practice makes perfect. If you don't get them on correctly, they'll poke the inner corner of your eye all night long!

I wear them a few times a month. You can find them for a resonable price at Ulta or Walgreens!

Being a girl who has naturally LOW impact eyes, I have found them to be a wonderful way to add drama. I use them for really special nights out, parties, and once you get the hang of them, they are so easy... it takes a confident hand, and tacky glue (set it for about 30 seconds before applying)... LOVE THEM!!!

I've always kind of wanted to try them I don't know why since I already have thick long lashes! Secret, I use to cut my lashes because they were too long people thought I was crazy. If you only knew how annoying they can be :)

They're easy to wear (I've been wearing them since I was 16). You do need to trim them to fit your eyes properly which most people don't seem to do. Once the are trimmed (they don't start in the inside corner of your eyelid. Try 1/8-1/4 of an inch up. Also you need to bend the eyelashes back and forth between your fingers to make the strip the lashes are on flexible for fitting on your eye. A light bit of adhesive(white adhesive dries clear)on the lashes strip and then place on your eye(see where Twiggy's start?) and there you go.You can check the position by holding a small mirror above your eye and look into the bathroom mirror. Easy peasy really, just practice.

I LOVE false eyelashes! I usually only do them when I'm on the stage or for special occasions, but occasionally for a date night I'll to half-falsies or a couple of the single clumps, just for a little added oomph. They make such a huge difference!

My auntie does the individual false eyelashes. It takes 3 hours to have them put on because she glues then to each eyelash. She did them for my wedding and i'm so grateful she sis. I cried like a baby. And i woke up looking beautiful every morning. The on ly problem with them is that you have to have them retouched every 4 to 6 weeks and its not cheap but i loved having them done. I wish i could have them forever.

I've worn them at the last few weddings I've gone to and am OBSESSED. I recommend starting with ones that are NOT a full even fringe all the way across. Get ones that are a little more sparse. Mine are from Walgreens or some such.Anyway, I've told people I'm wearing them, and they've said how great they look. The sparser ones just look like you have fantastic lashes. I'd like to experiment for the more obvious ones, but I'm really thinking my sparser ones will start seeing night-out use.

I tried them once. Maybe because I didn't do a good job, but I didn't like them very much. They're so hard to put on and the glue feels icky especially being so close to your eyes. And the glue takes forever to go away/take off. :/ They look cute, though.

I wore false lashes on my wedding day having never worn them before. I was understandably dubious given I wanted to feel comfortable but they TOTALLY made the look. And they look fantastic in the pictures - they don't look fake at all and I could hardly feel them.

i tried extensions on a whim and it turned out to be one of those thing you didn't know you couldn't live w/o until you got them. i go every 3-4 weeks and it takes an hour, but in the meanwhile no mascara, no black smudges under the eyes.

I work with a girl who wears fake eyelashes everyday! They look awesome on her! I'm not that talented but I did get eyelash extensions for my wedding and I am a HUGE fan! Seriously they lasted for like 3 months and they make you feel so so pretty;)
